138 HOWARD DRIVE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the North Hertfordshire local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The two 138 HOWARD DRIVE sales from September 2007 and March 2023 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the September 2007 sale was for 45% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 45% below the HPI over time, until the March 2023 sale, where it falls to 47% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 47% below the HPI.
